DG I would love for you to leave a poppy on my behalf. I've always wanted to go to that region but never actually done it.

As for FIFA one of H's friends was agreeing with their stance and that it is a political symbol because war itself is political. Alwys thought he was a bit of a berk. Seems now i was correct in my assessment if him all along <rollseyes>

Happy Birthday Adelight-know its a bit late in the day sorry:o:beer:

DG-that would be lovely thanks.My Gran had a brother who is buried in a military cemetery in France and never got over the loss of him and another brother who died of his injuries She had 5 brothers who all went to war.

Been showing DS2 how to make soup in the pressure cooker-he made broccoli and stilton,and beef & veg broth.He wants to lose a bit of weight he gained while he's been inactive with his prolapsed discs,but today the osteopath said he's nearly there and recovering well :j-just hope he doesnt start going mad going to the gym yet.
Loulou - you are doing really well posting,its very brave to be so open about your problems (and Cat )Look at how many people have responded to you-they wouldnt do that if they didnt care.
Hugs to all of you struggling like this xxx

Lou....hugs, nothing helpful to say but positive vibes on the way to you.

JackieG....you mind yourself missus....good people are scarce!

FW....thinking of you and wishing you all the best for to-morrow.

NPM....hugs to you and Noah.

Beth....slow down for the love of all that's holy! Are you eating or just cooking for everybody else...you should be resting more until the root of your problem is sorted.

Ruby...glad that they are feeding your poor dad now, and that DD is enjoying her WE.

Positive vibes to those with work problems, hopefully things will pick up soon.

OH 71 today....how did I get to be living with such an old man?? We had breakfast out after hospital clinic, but he wasn't hungry this evening so had nothing to eat, I had a bowl of thick homemade veg soup that had peas, beans, lentils and barley in, but need something now, had and chutney sandwich maybe.... Got some raspberries in Lidl so have made a sugar free jelly and put half of them to set in it....will have some to-morrow when I 'need' something sweet.

Looking forward to weekend away....bought DS1 big yellow stuffed toy to-day....he won't be impressed, but the cheque that goes in the card might help!

Sleep well all and stay safe.
